This hotel was perfect for our stay in Bardstown, KY. It was very clean, quiet, and the breakfast selection was EXTENSIVE. The biggest breakfast selection I've personally ever seen staying at a hotel. The only downside of our stay was that the pool was too cold for us to swim in. Otherwise, our stay could not have been any better!

Almost there!

While the hotel has recently been refurbished it was still missing the finer touches. Rooms had been recently painted, carpeted and tiled but doors didn't close due to tiles being higher. First room had no hot water.
